Can you add to the title that this is an Amex offer.

I have it on three cards. Me, daughter and wife's cards, different cc numbers but all on same general account. Can I use all three? I used to see a happy card with macy's and lowe's on same card, can't seem to find it. They don't have a store search.

I got one of these cards once as it was on sale using Chase points and it's a terrible card as it did not allow you to use it online like a normal gift card at several stores. Because of that I always stay away from these cards.

Yes. I do that all the time. It is one offer per person, not household or account.

Be VERY careful with these cards. More headaches then they're worth. Not accepted often at places they're supposed to be and the company's customer service is poor

Wow.. The ones I've used for Panera have also been fine. This offer is on my Amex, but I'll prolly pass.
If it were 15% off a $50 card, then maybe..

Looks like they're all e-gift? At first I thought you get an egift to claim for a physical card.... but looks like it's not? And, it's up to us to make sure that the merchant does accept the payment:


CAN I SPEND MY ELECTRONIC MERCHANT GIFT CARD ON THE MERCHANT'S WEBSITE?
This depends on the merchant's policy. Before you order your electronic gift cards, please check out the terms and conditions for each card. These are found by clicking on the information icon within the product description. You can also visit the merchant's website for more information.

Nevermind. After further analysis, the "enter payment as credit" means gift card
"online exchange required" probably means you get one merchant egift as exchange
"online redemption required" looks like it's the same as "online exchange required"

Let me know if I'm wrong.

Home Depot, in particular, can be a problem. Many cashiers also don't know how to process these

I've used many Happy GC in the past. They all used to be essentially merchant-limited prepaid CCs. In the past year or so they've shifted to what are basically promise cards - you buy a card that can (and must) then be redeemed (online) for a store gift card at any of the retailers on the front.

They still sell the prepaid CC type, and they are more versatile. For example, since they are CCs, you can buy anything in store including 3rd PARTY GC. They cannot be used online though.

Well I should say, places that are mostly B&M, the "use as credit" GC's won't work at their online portion. For example, if you find a version that's "use as credit" for Lowes, it won't work at Lowes.com

The versions that require online redemption - all you're doing is using the value of the GC to buy a vendor-specific GC; so rather than using the GC at Lowes directly (the "use as credit" version), the "online redemption" version you go "buy" a genuine Lowes GC, which you can then use anywhere that accepts a Lowes GC, which is in-store and online.
